Rewatched this with my son (who loved it) and realized how much of the film’s problems actually fall on Jake Lloyd just not being that good of an actor (which is totally not his fault and he never deserved the stupid attacks that 30 year old men threw at him). If Anakin had been portrayed as a teenager it may have…

The pettiness of what goes on behind the scenes of this franchise is borderline Olympic level. The whole “fambly” angle is nothing more than marketing and I’ve found it hard to take anything that comes out of anyone’s mouth from it seriously. Vin Diesel and Paul Walker weren’t “best fraaaans” until it suited the…

The CW shows are very hit or miss for me, but when they decided to do fan service they do it perfectly. Sometimes you just gotta give the people what they want.

No, I want Keaton for a Batman Beyond movie. Having said that, I’d also love a Batman Beyond movie focusing on an adult Terry McGuinness played by Keanu Reeves, but that’ll never happen.

He was part of the Derrick Comedy group.

Cobblepot on the other hand...

I especially love the way that scene is an homage to the Michael Powell film A Matter of Life and Death.

Yup, I remember 9-year-old me watching this with my older sister at my grandmother’s house. Totally bought into it.

Oh, cool. Thanks for correcting me on that!

Lord knows there are millions of different interpretations of The Shining, but I always thought it was interesting that, like what Kubrick always said about the movie being “optimistic”, the original movie has a weirdly happy ending.

I will say, and I know I’m in the minority here, I’m a total sicker for Raimi’s borderline fairy tale New York. I don’t need staunch realism in comic book movies so long as the movie is realistic to the world it presents, which is where the X-Men movies failed. They broke their world and rules so many times that I had …

That is the reason I just couldn’t get into it. The least they could have done is say it’s an alternate reality, but nope. Mangild insisted it’s the end of the original timeline. 

The thing that made the first one work for me is that it’s fairly succinct. Storm and Sabertooth aside the characters all get decent introductions and foundations to build on, Magneto’s plan isn’t overly ridiculous, it moves at a brisk pace, has Hugh Jackman nailing it in his debut as Wolverine, and uses Patrick Stewar…

Crystal Skull was my senior ditch day movie. I went with a large group of friends, one of whom went in full Indy regalia. I actually felt bad for him when he took his hat off in shame as the credits rolled. Personally I thought the movie was fun. Easily the weakest of the series by a mile or ten, but not really bad eit…

That’s a shame. I like Bedtime Story and absolutely love Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. I miss comedies like that, in the sort of Blake Edwards vein. I was hoping this movie would work out in spite of the trailer (I like Rebel Wilson, but she didn’t seem to have the necessary comedic rhythm for the dining car scene, but I…

If not for the fact that he's in no condition to do action movies anymore I would say it's the perfect comeback movie for Brendan Fraser.

Truth be told, I never bought Norton as Banner. He had no edge and only turned into the Hulk when he was in danger. I never got the feeling that he had emotional problems while Ruffalo does a great job of playing a guy who's only *just* holding it together.

Yeah, but his kid Larry's a real dunce.

“I feel good. I feel great. I feel wonderful.”

Redemption is its own series, a spiritual successor to Revolver primarily because Capcom funded and oversaw Revolver.
